2nd set of trash can armor

you know the chest display, i was thinking of using one of those LED dog tags sideways, they come in white green red blue purple pink and yellow.
 
Okay, I started my kids bucket today, but its too small DARN!! Oh well, I'm gonna finish it anyway.

I forgot if I printed this at 85% or 90%, I will print another one (only the dome pages to test) in a day or 2.

But here we go, a small step by step.

First I printed the WOF templates, I then glued (gluestick) those pages to priority mail envelopes.
Second I cut and taped the dome together.
I glued the face to another envelope, and cut it out, wraped it around the dome and 'spot' taped it to see, I decided to raise it a bit so it would fit onto my 5 year old, it barely fits.
I cut and layered the cheek bones and taped them in.

Looks good to me.
Next I will resin the interior and glass the weak areas only.
Then I will bondoglass the exterior and BAM! Mini Bucket :)

Just cutting and taping the parts together took me almost 3 hours... Thats because I used scissors and not my Xacto since I was using the dinner table/storage table ( :lol: ).
I'm off tomorrow so I'll resin the interior, and do some house cleaning ;) then hopefully start the bondo.
 
haha! ive seen that before :lol: I thought these suits were meant to make sure we're dead if we get shot. Why else would we wear them? ARE YOU SURE YOU'RE NOT DEAD?!?!?! :lol:
 
okay another minor update.
as you can see it still needs something on the right earcap... any suggestions?

As for the sketch (my avatar) Kal put a red blood mark on the bucket, I WILL be adding it soon, I just need a closer look at Kal and Alpha's sketches. ;)

if you want vod ive already done a close up of your bucket, i can add a few details of what i would think looks good and you can go where you want with it.
 
i totally agree! but i did this sketch of a few of my ideas anyway. You dont have to use anything at all. i put some blood stains on to give you some ideas for stains and spots to get it on

p.s. i think your bucket is great the way it is :D
